WARNINGS & IMPORTANT NOTES. To Job Seekers.
I work very hard, warnings when looking for employment.
I work very hard employment portal.
WARNINGS & IMPORTANT NOTES.
DO NOT SEND MONEY!
If you want to send someone money send it here this will be used to help improve A Great Portal websites.
Women should refrain from responding to positions offering film contracts, hostess jobs and overseas jobs that seem too good to be true. Check with the embassies of the countries in which these jobs are offered to find out about the legitimacy of the company offering such jobs.
It is your responsible to verify any of the employment positions, enter it and use links at your own risk. If these conditions are understood and acceptable you are welcome to use this site to help you find a job.
Check any advertise or listed job with a recognised careers advisor who is independent of any website listed or any employer.
Remember if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is.
Not all the jobs may be relevant to your needs. The web sites listed may not have been checked.
Some of the web sites listed may be for employment in other countries.
If a site states that the job is great, ask yourself why do they have to advertise it.
Always make sure that you are able to return to a safe place.
Do you have anyone else, outside the company, you are able to ask for help or a safe place if things don't go according to plan.
Let others know full details of what you intend to do. Ask an official advisor if they have heard of any problems with the place you intend to work for.
There is a difference to going on holiday to a place and working there, you may be treated as a second class citizen. Every day hearing, "Hey! move that pile of pig droppings,".
Sure the area is great. Opps! we forgot to tell you we have a curfew after 6:00pm and twenty people are injured or die doing that job.
Doing the same task day in and day out can become boring and drive anyone up the wall.
Having to learn new skills all the time can be stressful and expensive.
Recruitment agency's may get commission to fill a job position quickly and therefore may not offer an unbiased view of the job.
Even government sponsored agency's may be under pressure to reach targets or on commission and therefore biased to getting people any job without considering any problems with the employer.
The employer may be in dispute with past employees or even the present staff this could make any make any new employees position difficult.
Travel to interesting countries may be great if you have the money and time to spend visiting the sights.
Living in a hostel, bedsits, flats or a hotel may give access to a good social life, if you like the people and if you have the money and time to access it. Otherwise you may find it too noisy to relax and have time to unwind when you need.
It is YOU who gets criticised for the duties you have to carry out, even if you don't like doing them.
The people you work for when you start may change and there could be personality clashes that could make you want to change employment. This may not be so easy, you may have to stay in the job because of other commitments.
Don't take the word of the people you intend to work for.
Other areas may pay more but living expenses may be a lot higher. Find out what expenses are likely to be and double that amount.
ASK, ASK and ASK again.
NEVER, NEVER give or send money to anyone in the hope of employment, even if they promise materials in return.
If the job promised has a high wage and good working conditions then consider why others are not doing it.
Do not believe the amount of wages or holidays listed. Earn £25,000.00 plus car and pension, sure you can if you work 20 hours a day 7 days a week and pay £24,000.00 for housing, travel, insurance, gas, electricity, food and tools to do the job.
Remember that your circumstances may change and you may have to return home.
Management and your duties may change.
New staff may be taken on, possibly someone you don't like.
You may be asked to do overtime or work when you would like to be off. The overtime you where able to do to get a good wage may be stopped.
The place you work for may have to relocate.
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK THE OFFERED EMPLOYMENT.
THAT DREAM JOB MAY BECOME A NIGHTMARE.
This list of web sites imay not in any particular order, therefore no site may be better than any other.
This website may receive commission or payment to list websites and may therefore not be unbiased.
These sites are outside the control of this web site.
Some sites and employment may be repeated; this does not mean they are any better than others.
A good web site does not mean good employment.
A site called "greatest_employment_ever_heard_of_in_the_whole_world" may have poor quality employment, so take care.
Their are some reports that some employers and agencies place job advertisements for jobs that do not exist. This may be done so that the employer or agency has a list of potential employees that they are able to call upon if required. Also the benefits of some jobs listed are unrealistic. This may be true but such matters are usually beyond a job hunters control. If you are able try to contact an employee who has to work for the company your considering and ask them what it is really like.
Don't forget to check any employer by normal methods, for example with a recognised careers advisor who is independent of any website listed or any employer.
Always check the Conditions of Employment (A Joke, I think)
Hope this information hasn't put you off applying for work.
